Brothers I was much like you until this morning. I too was wondering...do I not deserve at least an email from the mothership?

Well I hate to burst your bubble but it's not all its cracked up to be. My order status online still says Aug 9th, this email says the order was delayed and will now ship out July 15th,2005. That was last week for all of you Quantum Leap fans.

So incredibly I am more confused now then I was yesterday.
There is a ray of optimism, the itemized list says "confirmed" next to each of the items. Hopefully "confirmed" is "complete" and my order is waiting in the hanger for the freight plane to the US of A. Or maybe my laptop is still a glimmer in the eye of some industrious Chinaman and I won't see my laptop till Sept.

If you would all please take a moment to look over the revised customer order information database, you will find that we have installed three new functions so that you may better serve our customers. First, our programmers have worked hard to bring to you the Random Ship Date generator. If the generated output is a date before today, make up something that feels comfortable. Second, you'll see on the right hand side the new Late Excuses generator. Just click and read verbatim. Lastly, we have installed a Kick-to-End-of-Ship-Queue button. Use liberally and chuckle all the while. Thank you for bearing with us through these changes so that we can optomize our customer service.

Nothing to wonder about. The random ship date generator screwed up. Your sales rep is really lazy that he couldn't even make up a "comfortable date".
